Leo, a Jewish war refugee suffering from amnesia, makes his way to America where he falls under the influence of Joey, a two-bit comedian. While intoxicated, Leo discovers that he can sing and becomes an overnight sensation at Luli’s Gyspy Paradise. Suddenly, gangsters enter the scene and, in a scuffle, Leo is knocked unconscious. He awakens to find that the blow has caused painful memories to return. Starring Yiddish screen favorite Moishe Oysher in his only English language role, and filmed by Academy Award-winning cinematographer, Boris Kaufman (On The Waterfront), this film was one of the first American features to depict a holocaust survivor.
